It was planned by BT in the 80's to roll out fibre, but Margaret Thatcher bowed under pressure from the incoming American cable companies that it would be unfair and uncompetitive. So it's was withdrawn and the American cable companies arrived then backed down on their promises to roll out their fibre country wide and just did a few cherry picked cities.

In most cases, that promised fibre turned out to be co-ax cable.
